TOPIC: More Big Base ECW |
Administrator Posts: 897 peter 25th Apr 2018 09:32:15 After I'd done a couple of the big based ECW infantry battalia, I'd been curious to see what would happen if I gave some Horse the same treatment. Judging from emails and questions at shows, so are al lot of others. I decided to base the unit on the contemporary drill books. Here we have a troop drawn up in 3 divisions:
I worked out that I could fit two of these on a standard base, and the end result was this: Which I thought was quite spiffing, so I knocked out another one and took some pretty pictures: All of which has given me an idea for a project. And as anyone who knows me will tell you - I am dangerous when I get an idea... I have plans. I am dangerous when I have plans... |
Oh my goodness! I am very keen to get into For King and Parliament. Was going to go 15mm - not any more! Please keep posting this inspirational stuff, Peter. It is beyond temptation. A little goes a long way |

Administrator Posts: 897 peter 25th Apr 2018 12:07:54 The Big Bases measure 200x100. As they are a 2:1 ratio they are perfectly sized for Polemos ECW.
I have plans. I am dangerous when I have plans... |

As long as you all stay safe and keep the distances apart. This will eventually end, and then I will place another order.
Cheers! Rob

Standard User Posts: 18 DiceatDawn 27th Apr 2018 09:07:23 Exciting stuff! Very impressive. Will Polemos work with a low(er) number of units and a long base width or are you going to need a football field to play on Peter? I'm asking since I'm doing my P&S units on three 60x30 bases and am still considering rules. |
My club are busily building TYW (and ECW) armies for an upcoming large battle set - they will be called 'Twilight of Divine Right' and shoud be out in a month or so, along with a couple of scenario books. Most historic battles are 1 player a side to be played in an afternnon/evening.
